Pet Pride of New York, Incorporated

About

This nonprofit organization operates as a registered cat rescue and shelter facility, focusing exclusively on feline welfare in the Rochester area. The organization provides comprehensive services including emergency shelter, veterinary medical care, and adoption placement for homeless cats throughout the community. As a 501(c)(3) charitable organization with New York State registration, they maintain transparency standards recognized by GuideStar's Platinum Seal certification. The facility offers multiple ways for community members to get involved, including volunteer opportunities specifically designed for veterinary professionals and general volunteers. They provide educational resources covering topics such as cat care guidance for new pet owners, surrender options for families who can no longer care for their pets, and assistance programs for individuals who encounter stray or feral cats. The organization also maintains connections with local groups that specialize in trap-neuter-return programs for feral cat populations. With nearly five decades of operation since 1977, this rescue organization has established itself as a consistent presence in local animal welfare efforts. Their location on Victor Mendon Road serves as both an adoption center where potential pet owners can meet available cats and a resource hub for cat-related information and support services.
